Venue: Hannover, Germany
Website: www.domotex.de

The world’s leading trade fair for floor coverings will once again be the most important event of the business year in 2013 – and a major driver of sales growth. This is the only place where all the major suppliers come together every year to present the complete range of floor coverings available worldwide.

DOMOTEX Hannover launched a new concept in 2012, the Wood Flooring Summit 2012, which focused on a specific keynote theme that will alternate every year. The cycle began in 2012 with a huge success when the product category embracing laminates, parquet and other wooden flooring boasts a platform appropriate to the modern products on show.
